Sound Bath with Sasha
If you're looking for a new way to meditate, relax, or reduce stress, sound baths may be a helpful option. Participants usually lie on the ground with a yoga mat, blankets, pillows, or seated in a chair and listen to the sound of the singing bowls and other instruments.
A sound bath is different from a normal music presentation in that the sounds are put together in a sometimes unrhythmic pattern to break patterns in the mind. This sound bath will be 45 minutes.
No background in theory or philosophy is required—just curiosity and a willingness to think about the places we already live inside.

What Is This Place, Really?
What Is This Place? Asking Better Questions About Institutions,
This workshop is a gentle invitation to rethink the spaces we work and learn in—especially libraries, universities, and other places where knowledge is organized. Instead of offering critique for its own sake, we’ll explore what it means to re-inhabit these institutions with care, attention, and a clearer sense of purpose. Through reflection, dialogue, and a few surprising prompts, we’ll ask: What does this space assume about me? What do I assume about it? And what could change if we both asked better questions?
No background in theory or philosophy is required—just curiosity and a willingness to think about the places we already live inside.

Being Your Own Contractor
This workshop offers a practical and philosophical guide to managing your own creative, academic, or professional projects as a self-contained contractor. Participants will explore heuristic strategies for designing workflows, timelines, and self-assessments that replace the need for external oversight. We’ll examine how to build internal accountability structures, respond to obstacles without derailing momentum, and identify when to seek support without surrendering autonomy. Rooted in lived experience and grounded experimentation, this session is ideal for students and faculty navigating independent work, interdisciplinary roles, or institutional gaps. Participants will also learn how to roof their house, just like me.

Radical Contingentism and You
This workshop is for anyone who’s ever wondered how things could have gone differently—personally, cosmically, or otherwise. Through speculative thinking, narrative design, and playful exercises, we’ll explore the radical idea that nothing had to happen the way it did, and ask what becomes possible when we stop assuming the world is fixed. Drawing from queer theory’s liberatory insights—which offer tools for anyone rethinking identity, structure, or possibility—we’ll map alternate selves and futures, and experiment with new ways of learning and becoming.
No philosophy background required—just curiosity, openness, and a willingness to unstick reality for a while.

Learning in Spite of Technology
This session is for anyone who has ever felt reduced, distracted, or disoriented by the very tools meant to help them think. Together, we’ll reflect on what it means to cultivate a mind in a world shaped by automation, acceleration, and algorithmic efficiency. This isn’t a technophobic critique—it’s a space for shared inquiry into how we recover slowness, depth, and attention amid constant digital interference. Come if you’ve ever wondered what discipline means when a machine already knows the answer.
No preparation needed—just bring your experience, your questions, and your tired, brilliant brain.
